13,14-dihydro-15-keto Prostaglandin D2 (13,14-dihydro-15-keto PGD2) is a metabolite of PGD2 which is formed through the 15-hydroxy PGDH pathway. 13,14-dihydro-15-keto PGD2 was recently identified as a selective agonist for the CRTH2/DP2 receptor. It also inhibits ion flux in a canine colonic mucosa preparation. In humans, 13,14-dihydro-15-keto PGD2 is further metabolized to give 11β-hydroxy compounds which have also undergone β-oxidation of one or both side chains. Virtually no 13,14-dihydro-15-keto PGD2 survives intact in the urine.
13,14-Dihydro-15-keto-PGD2 is a metabolite of Prostaglandin D2 (CAT# P838575) and a selective CRTh2/DP2 receptor agonist. CRTh2/DP2 receptors play crucial roles in atopic dermatitis, asthma, and other inflammatory diseases.
ChEBI: 13,14-dihydro-15-ketoprostaglandin D2 is a prostaglandins D. It has a role as a metabolite. It is functionally related to a prostaglandin D2.
